if what you want is a 'deamon'
a task that looks for work, does it and goes to sleep
allowing other actions to take place.
repeat
if (work to do)
do work
end if
delay process(current process; duration in tiks))
(or)
pause process(current process)
until (exit 4D)
tik = 1/60 of a second
you would start this in its own process. If you might want to 'wake'
the deamon outside of the delay time period, or wake a paused process,
from a second process issue:
CALL PROCESSS(deamon process id)
